Private hospital is all about making money. Serious case will quickly be refer goverment hospital. Paying thousands and don't even feel safe. I know that many people feel private hospital is better but believe it is the other way round.

Since you are asking then only i share our experience. My wife just deliver our son last week at Pantai KL (or Bangsar).  It was totally a nightmare, my wife was admitted to Pantai on 31st Dec for induction as we wanted to have a new year baby. But she was discharged on the 4th day after 3 times of tablet insertion to soften her cervix + 2 times of membrane sweep. Do note, after induction, you started to feel contraction and it is also very painful when Dr perform the membrane sweep.  This was our first disappointment as this is the first time we heard induce and baby is not coming out.  My wife started to feel real contraction on 2nd day after she discharged from pantai and her water broke on the 3rd day after she discharged. I rushed her to hospital again feeling all excited because this time it was a real labor. The nurses told us we have 12 hours duration for the baby to come out even the water bag rapture.  But we waited for 3 hours then only the doc came to assess my wife. Then she told us we can wait for 24 hours.  Some of the nurses are just not that experienced and the advice they gave u are not consistence. Some of them are nice but not all.

The real nightmare started after we waited for more than 24 hours and yet my wife still not dilated enough (about 9cm).  In between, i did asked the Dr if we can do anything to expedite the dilation process but she said my wife is doing fine (somehow she managed to convince me or she left me with no choice).  We just wait and wait. Finally I couldn't wait any longer and I insist the Dr to come immediately after my wife water bag burst for more than 24 hours. Finally the doc came and checked on my wife, still 9cm and she said need to wait for another 1 - 2 hours. Do note, during that time the baby already exposed to infection since the water already break for more than 24 hours.  Then i asked the doc if we can immediately deliver the baby. She then started to push the cervix open (DAMN PAIN FOR MY WIFE) and i can see even more water rushing out and some of it are blood.  During that time, there weren't any midwive beside the doctor until my wife shouted very loud as she was in pain, then one of the midwife rushed in and immediately she saw the doc started to deliver my baby then she put on the glove and assist the doc. After 1 and half hours my wife using all her strength to push, finally she is tired. Doc used the vacuum to suck my baby's head till the vacuum loosen by itself and my son's skin got peel off. She then started to use forceps but my wife already no more energy to push and doc suggest to go for C-sec.

Our baby boy was born finally but due to he was already exposed to risk of infections for more than 24 hours, he has to be given antibiotic for 3 days and his breathing is not stable and also his lung has water.  He was admitted to NICU for 4 days.

Total damage? >RM20K.

Choose the right doctor, choose the right hospital! The money u paid can earn back, but the life u put ur faith on cannot earn back!  For our case, we have chosen the wrong doctor, the wrong hospital ... We will never go back to that hospital anymore vmad.gif  vmad.gif  vmad.gif

Hi we just got a very wonderful findings last Wednesday. Test kit shown 2 lines which indicates that my wife is pregnant.. Happiness were all around us as it will be our new experiance in life. At same time alot of questions jammed up our mind.
Few of it will be baby delivery.
1. Private/Govt
2. If private which hospital
3. When read through this thread more things jamming up my mind.. 😳

Anyway my wife will be in 6th week this week. We planning to go and see the specialist in 7th/8th week. Since we are around Bandar Sunway area, SDMC, SMC, Assuntha, KJMC, KPJ Selangor n Columbia Bkt.Rimau in our mind so far for private options. Looking at Gov, i have Putrajaya n PPUM in mind.
Also from the reading of this thread i found out in private if normal delivery range between RM3k-RM5k, of c-sec between RM7k-RM9k. If normal come to c-sec then not below RM8k for sure.
Still undecided which hospital to go for but Assunta n KJMC in my mind due to my budget+some good reviews i read about that 2 hosp.

Anyone with ongoing follow ups in KJMC n Assunta hospital?

2. Current indicated charges for normal delivery and also for c-sec?

In you have constrain in budget can go straight to government hospital. Is as good as any private hospital. Putrajaya hospital is an execellent choice. Why want to pay more to go to private hospital. We pay tax to government is time to get the service

Some nurses really nice but i would said majority of it are just wearing mask and treat u nicely. Some of them only are really nice to you from their heart. I bought some gift for those that i felt is nice since my son was in ICU during that time and i can see them really taking efforts to jaga my son.

Given new born antibiotic is a bad thing. Might have side effect when they grow up. Is not recommended to give antibiotic until a child is 1 year. That will be the norm

It's too late and I was leave with no choice as I do not have any medical knowledge background. What had happened already happened, what I can do now is just pray for the blessing.

But do you mind to share with me what's the side effects that you may know of? icon_question.gif

Hi lilyzhaowei,

My wife is planning to give birth at SJMC as well. She's attempting a VBAC (Fingers crossed) as we are to only find out after MRI as advised by Dr. Dato Siti if her hips are strong enough for natural birth.

Don't mind me asking if you'd mentioned that it's 3k for a normal birth without vacuum, forceps or epi, simply being induced (Once or twice), does it include the costs for whatever it is they do to the baby?

I just need a clear picture of total costs involved with everything if you don't mind,

Thanks in advance ya.

Lilyzhaowei, just wonder why your cost much more lower than mine?

Hi Wos,

5.6k for single bedded with vacuum, epi and epidural. Any other misc. cost for baby?

My wife is planning to give birth there too, just wondering what the total cost is.

Yes need 5 months advance because they have lots of people. You can to their website to check out all the info in details. Once you are accepted there, you can choose the doctor. After the doctor you choose will be the one doing the monthly check up. Total cost of delivery for my twins is RM2800 as my wife opt for csec + epidural. Is a 1 bedroom for 3 days 2 nights. They will provide a reclining bed for husband as well. Is extremely cheap compare to any private hospital. If private hospital twins delivery will be more 10k.
